Over the past 10 days I been doing a lot of testing on the Dragino LPS8 as the transfer of packets from LPS8 to Helium has been inconsistent. Just as I was to make a follow up video the packet transfer pretty much stopped and I am trying to figure out why. And then I have a day job :-)
Thank you, this was very helpful. By chance, are there any updates or guidance on how to complete the setup and fund the wallet? The docs on the helium site are confusing. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you. You are correct I did leave it incomplete and there have been so many changes that it did not make sense to continue. However now that "Data only" hotspots / gateways are on the blockchain it would be beneficial. I will give it some thought but dont want to make false promises.
first off: amazing video! thanks, i heard you mention "onboarding" a few times, and this is the part where i am stuck now. how do i onboard to the network/ my wallet?
Thank you for the awesome video! Is there a option to call you and talk a little bit about the Dragino? For example per MS-Teams? I‘m happy to hear from you!
I am not sure but believe Yes. The example would be having a data only hotspot to give better coverage in a building. For now data only hotspots are not seen as active / not active on the blockchain so it would be ok. Once we pass Milestone 4 then there will be guides I am sure. I still in my opinion believe it will be ok.
The data only hotspot / LPS8 will take a lot of data to become profitable. For me it was more about testing and understanding. In the future with roaming agreements I suppose it will become profitable.
If you dont have a full hotspot yet and want to learn by doing Lora related things then yes. Later on after Milestone 4 you will earn with this hotspot / gateway when other devices and your own send data through it so overall yes. That being said it is my opinion.
Ok thank you that’s what I was thinking when I brought it I’m waiting on my other one to come in thought I’d try and get my feet wet atleast with this one
good evening, i keep getting the "your connection is not privare" message and it asks for a username and password every time i put in the dragino ip. any work around?
That is strange, I always got a prompt to type in user = root and password = dragino until I changed the password. If you go to the System - General menu you can change your password "YourLPS8IP":8000/cgi-bin/system-general.has
Hi and this is sooo late. Have you followed this on the Helium docs site docs.helium.com/wallets/#:~:text=%20Wallets%20%201%20Helium%20App.%20The%20Helium,Ledger%20Hardware%20wallet.%20The%20Ledger%20Hardware...%20More%20

@Bobcat Wolfenstein, one guidance step. When you do the command bellow it works when both -owner and -buyer wallet addresses are the same. I tried it with -buyer being different from -owner and it did not work. Example: helium_gateway add -owner 13bjZai9xxx_QHyZyPAc --payer 13bjZai9xxx_QHyZyPAc From the output of the above take the "txn" and use it in the helium-wallet hotspots add and once verified the helium-wallet hotspots add "------" --commit Hope this helps for now.

Slowly getting back to my channel. Have you got your up and running yet?
@@balticwave_iot Also interested in the last part! Almost there but joining the helium server with the helium wallet is a bit tricky !
very nice video! What is the current average earning for the data transfer only?
Second that! I've got 5 od them
Excellent quality Setup Guide! Loved the content.
Much appreciated and thank you for the feedback.
Amazing lecture, can you please upload more tutorials to complete the setup? It seems you left the setup incomplete.

Amazing job thanks for the setup
Thanks for the video, it really helped a lot
Hey have you finished the video on creating a wallet? That is the part I am currently stuck on.
first off: amazing video! thanks, i heard you mention "onboarding" a few times, and this is the part where i am stuck now. how do i onboard to the network/ my wallet?
Thank you for the awesome video! Is there a option to call you and talk a little bit about the Dragino? For example per MS-Teams? I‘m happy to hear from you!
We can look at scheduling a teams chat on the weekend or Friday 20 August even.
I can`t setup CLI wallet, I tried with powershell but didn`t work, could you help me with this problem?
thank you
can you please make a video now where and how to connect and create the cli... please
Please make a Video absolut the cli wallet
Können sie mir helfen einbauen möglich ???
Is it possible to have a data only hotspot like this and a typical POC hotspot in the same location?
I am not sure but believe Yes. The example would be having a data only hotspot to give better coverage in a building.
For now data only hotspots are not seen as active / not active on the blockchain so it would be ok. Once we pass Milestone 4 then there will be guides I am sure. I still in my opinion believe it will be ok.
will this earn any profit at this moment or do we have to wait for Milestone 2?
Only at Milestone 2. I must check because I thought I mentioned it in the video.
This will most probably never earn any money. Just some money for the guys who sell overpriced hardware for this.
do you know when the second part is coming out?
I am going to try do it this weekend.
The weekend did not work, sorry, had gateway issues lol. Lets see how this weekend goes. I will send you a reply once its done.
Is it profitable yet? Or earning any Helium
The data only hotspot / LPS8 will take a lot of data to become profitable. For me it was more about testing and understanding. In the future with roaming agreements I suppose it will become profitable.
Thx for Video, helps me to install my Dragino. But i cant connect to Helium App. I dont know about the next steps.
Did you get it to work?
Can I set this up using a MacBook and is this currently worth investing in in your own opinion?
If you dont have a full hotspot yet and want to learn by doing Lora related things then yes. Later on after Milestone 4 you will earn with this hotspot / gateway when other devices and your own send data through it so overall yes. That being said it is my opinion.
Ok thank you that’s what I was thinking when I brought it I’m waiting on my other one to come in thought I’d try and get my feet wet atleast with this one
how does it do compared to Bobcat miner 300?
Hope you got your answer as this is a Data only gateway. You get no Proof of Coverage earning and will only earn on Data Packet transfer.
good evening, i keep getting the "your connection is not privare" message and it asks for a username and password every time i put in the dragino ip. any work around?
Has this been solved, sorry for the late reply.
@@balticwave_iot yea it got solved, but the cli wallet till this day will not convert my helium into data credits
how did you log into the PUTTY Command? Asking for user and password but let me type any password
That is strange, I always got a prompt to type in user = root and password = dragino until I changed the password.
If you go to the System - General menu you can change your password
"YourLPS8IP":8000/cgi-bin/system-general.has
Seems you hotspot is now offline
3 weeks ago it was, i was away and a remote power cycle did not bring it back up. It needed the latest firmware and gateway-rs software upgraded.
I believe my dragino is set up and ready to roll, I have created my cli wallet. How do I connect the dragino to my wallet?
Hi and this is sooo late.

@@balticwave_iot is there any detailef way to see if the deagino get some packets and earning anything? (Where can i find the detailed log)?
did you build the wallet?
Did this dude just dox himself?
